Lyrics and translation
Original
When I'm looking in a mirror, I see a man on fire.
Am I a radio poet or a barroom liar? If I put my guitar down, would I disappear?
Move back to my hometown, would you still be here?
I sing about highways and worlds turning sideways, goodbyes in driveways, and loves that don't die. Oh.
I sing about leaving, getting drunk on a feeling, make 'em believe it'll all be all right.
But whoa, when the rhinestones fade and the world moves on, whoa, will you love the man or the song?
Yeah, I know it's been a long road, in and out of tune.
But I could do it with my eyes closed. Some nights I do. Every star's got a burnout.
I wonder if you know it's not who I am, it's just what I do.
I sing about highways and worlds turning sideways, goodbyes in driveways, and loves that don't die. Oh.
I sing about leaving, getting drunk on a feeling, make 'em believe it'll all be all right.
But whoa, when the rhinestones fade and the world moves on, whoa, will you love the man or the song that I wrote, that echoes through the rafters?
Will you still dance to it? Will it even matter? I sing about highways.
I sing about you.
I sing about highways and worlds turning sideways, goodbyes in driveways, and loves that don't die. Oh.
I sing about leaving, getting drunk on a feeling, make 'em believe it'll all be all right.
But whoa, when the rhinestones fade and the world moves on, whoa, will you love the man or the song?
Am I the man or the song?
